Answer:

Covalent compounds.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, when forming chemical bonds in order to form compounds, we say that if electrons are shared, covalent compounds are to be formed and they usually have subscripts that need prefixes to be named, for instance phosphorous pentachloride (PCl5), dichlorine heptoxide (Cl2O7), carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and many others.

How many individual orbitals does carbon use for all of its electrons? Remember, there are two electrons in each filled orbital

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Three orbitals

Explanation:

The electronic configuration of carbon is given as follows;

1s²2s²2p²

Therefore, out of the six electrons of the carbon atoms, 4 fill the 1s and 2s orbitals with 2 electrons each, while the two remaining electrons are situated in the 2p orbital, with the electrons in the 2p orbital will remain unpaired such that they will have similar quantum numbers in accordance with Pauli exclusion principle.

Which one of the following would have the largest dispersion forces?

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

A) CH3CH2SH

Explanation:

Dispersion forces are weak attractions found between non-polar and polar molecules. The attractions here can be attributed to the fact that a non-polar molecule sometimes become polar because the constant motion of its electrons may lead to an uneven charge distribution at an instant. If this happens, the molecule has a temporary dipole. This dipole can induce the neighbouring molecules to be distorted and form dipoles as well. The attractions between these dipoles constitute the Dispersion Forces.

Therefore; the greater the molar mass of a compound or molecule, the higher the Dispersion Force. This implies that the compound or molecule with the highest molar mass have the largest dispersion forces.

Now; for option (A)

CH3CH2SH

The molar mass is :

= (12 + (1 × 3 ) +12 + (1 ×2) + 32+1)

= (12 + 3+ 12 + 2 + 32 + 1)

= 62 g/mol

For option (B)

CH3NH2

The molar mass is:

= (12 + (1 × 3 ) +14 + (1 × 2)

= (12 + 3 + 14 + 2)

= 31 g/mol

For option (C)

CH4

The molar mass is :

= 12 + (1 × 4)

= 12 + 4

= 16 g/mol

For option (D)

CH3CH3

The molar mass is :

= 12 + ( 1 × 3 ) + 12 + ( 1 × 3)

= 12 + 3 + 12 + 3

= 30 g/mol

Thus ; option (A) has the highest molar mass, as such the largest dispersion force is A) CH3CH2SH

A 2.684-g sample of zinc oxide was reduced by hydrogen gas, resulting in 2. 156 g of pure zinc metal. Determine the empirical fo

Afina-wow [57]

The empirical formula of the initial zinc oxide is ZnO.

<h3>What is Empirical Formula?</h3>

The empirical formula of a compound represents the ratios of elements in a compound but not the actual numbers or arrangement of the atoms.

It is the lowest whole number ratio of the element in the compound.

<h3>How to find out the empirical formula?</h3>

Find out the given masses and molar masses of the elements

The molar mass of Zn = 65 gmol⁻¹

Given the mass of Zn = 2.156 g

The molar mass of Oxygen = 16 gmol⁻¹

The mass of Oxygen = Mass of a sample of zinc oxide - the mass of zinc metal

= (2.684 - 2.156) g

= 0.528 g

Find the number of moles of the elements in the compound

The number of moles is given by

$n = \frac{m}{M}$

where m = given mass and

M = Molar mass

Number of moles of Zinc = $\frac{2.156}{65}$ = 0.033 moles

Number of moles of Oxygen = $\frac{0.528}{16}$ = 0.033 moles

Find the simplest ratios of the elements in the compound. To find the ratios simply divide the number of moles by the lowest number of moles obtained.

Here, the number of moles is the same for both elements. Hence, the simplest ratio for Zn:O is 1:1.

Therefore, the empirical formula of zinc oxide is ZnO.
